Christ Quotes

Christ, and after that everything is “automatic. ” This is because of our failure to lay a scriptural emphasis in our evangelical preaching. In our eagerness to make converts, we allow our believers to absorb the idea that they can deal with their Picture Quote #1

How tragic that we in this dark day have had our seeking done for us by our teachers. Everything is made to center upon the initial act of

Has it ever occurred to you that one hundred pianos all tuned to the same fork are automatically tuned to each other? They are of one accord by being tuned, not to each other, but to another standard to which each one must individually bow. So one hundred worshipers met together, each one looking away to Christ, are in heart nearer to each other than they could possibly be, were they to become 'unity' conscious and turn their eyes away from God to strive for closer fellowship Picture Quote #1

My best may not be the best but that is the best. The more I give out my best to people, the more they give out their worse but that is the best for Jesus Christ faced the worst Picture Quote #1

If we are going to persevere as committed disciples of Jesus Christ over the course of our lives, we must always keep the gospel of God's forgiveness through Christ before us Picture Quote #1

God does not believe for us, but through His Spirit He creates spiritual life in us so that we can believe. Faith is the gift of God. It's part of the whole salvation package that God gives to us through the work of Christ for us and the work of the Holy Spirit in us. It's not our contribution, so to speak, to God's great plan of salvation. God does it all. It's part of the unsearchable riches of Christ Picture Quote #1

There's a direct correlation between faith in the righteousness of Christ and zeal in the cause of Christ. The more a person counts as loss his own righteousness and lays hold by faith of the righteousness of Christ, the more he'll be motivated to live and work for Christ Picture Quote #1

Scripture speaks of a holiness which we have in Christ before God and a holiness which we must strive after Picture Quote #1

Nothing cuts the nerve of the desire to pursue holiness as much as a sense of guilt. On the contrary, nothing so motivates us to deal with sin in our lives as does the understanding and application of the two truth that our sins are forgiven and the dominion of sin is broken because of our union with Christ Picture Quote #1

Our source of power is in the risen Christ, and we stay connected to Him by beholding Him in His Word and depending on Him in prayer Picture Quote #1

To see the law by Christ fulfilled and hear his pardoning voice, changes a slave into a child and duty into choice Picture Quote #1

It is not the fact that we are united in common goals or purposes that makes us a community. Rather, it is the fact that we share a common life in Christ Picture Quote #1

So we see that God has made provision for our holiness. Through Christ He has delivered us from sin's reign so that we now can resist sin. But the responsibility for resisting is ours. God does not do that for us. To confuse the potential for resisting (which God provided) with the responsibility for resisting (which is ours) is to court disaster in our pursuit of holiness Picture Quote #1

Because we have a natural tendency to look within ourselves for the basis of God's approval or disapproval, we must make a conscious daily effort to look outside ourselves to the righteousness of Christ, then to stand in the present reality of our justification Picture Quote #1

This pursuit requires sustained, vigorous effort. It allows for no indolence, no lethargy, no halfhearted commitment, and no laissez- faire attitude toward even the smallest sins. In short, it demands the highest priority in a Christian's life because to be holy is to be like Christ - God's goal for every Christian. The word pursue Picture Quote #1

As soon as we take the enfleshment of God, the incarnation which, for Christians, is represented by the person of Jesus Christ, then we start taking things seriously Picture Quote #1

Most of us probably entertain either of these attitudes on different days. On a good day (as we perceive it), we tend toward self-righteous Pharisaism. On a not-so-good day, we allow ourselves to wallow in a sense of failure and guilt. Either way we've moved away from the gospel of God's grace, trying to relate to God directly on the basis of our performance rather than through Christ Picture Quote #1

A clean heart is a free heart. A free heart can love Christ with an undivided love in chastity, convinced that nothing and nobody will separate it from his love. Purity, chastity, and virginity created a special beauty in Mary that attracted God's attention Picture Quote #1

I know I am touching the living body of Christ in the broken bodies of the hungry and the suffering Picture Quote #1

We must become holy not because we want to feel holy, but because Christ must be able to live His life fully in us Picture Quote #1

Suffering is nothing by itself. But suffering shared with the passion of Christ is a wonderful gift, the most beautiful gift, a token of love Picture Quote #1

Christ came to be Father's compassion to the world. Be kind in your actions. Do not think that you are the only one who can do efficient work, work worth showing. This makes you harsh in your judgment of others who may not have the same talents. Do your best and trust that others do their best. And be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies Picture Quote #1

Confess to God that you are a sinner. Ask Him to forgive you. Receive His gift of salvation through the death of Christ on the cross. And then you are saved? Picture Quote #1

God, I know that I’m a sinner and deserve punishment. But I believe Jesus Christ took that punishment and that through faith in Him I can be forgiven. I trust in You for salvation. Thank You and amen!’ Picture Quote #1

Demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us Picture Quote #1

Spiritual birth,” Hewbright added. “Let’s call it what it was. Being born again through a faith in Jesus Christ. Believing that His death on the cross accomplished forgiveness of my sins. And that His rising from the grave three days later proved He was truly the Son of God, who came to bring eternal life to everyone who calls on His name Picture Quote #1

While the gospel is certainly about new, abundant life in Christ now, not just in heaven, we should neither ignore nor scoff at the fact that it results in salvation Picture Quote #1

He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep [this temporal life] to gain what he cannot lose [eternal life with Christ] Picture Quote #1

There is always the danger that we may just do the work for the sake of the work. This is where the respect and the love and the devotion come in - that we do it to God, to Christ, and that's why we try to do it as beautifully as possible Picture Quote #1

Thinking as I do that the creator of this world is a very cruel being and being a worshipper of christ, I cannot help saying: the son, o how unlike the father! First God almighty comes with a thump on the head. Then Jesus Christ comes with a balm to heal it Picture Quote #1
